A number of ‘cluster groups’ have been formed around NZ, bringing together teachers who are interested in Mantle of the Expert. These groups meet to exchange ideas, visit each others’ classrooms and offer planning support. A really valuable feature of the cluster groups is how they bring together teachers from all sectors: primary, intermediate secondary and tertiary, preservice teaching students, principals and community educators are all welcome…
To contact your local cluster group, please get in touch with one of the people listed below: Or, if you have formed a group in your area and would like to list contact details here, please send an email to viva@waikato.ac.nz

This interactive tool is to help teachers with the first phase of planning for a Mantle of the Expert experience – preplanning.
The tool consists of a set of questions for the teacher to ask themselves as they work through possibilities. The answers selected at each point enable the teacher to establish the ‘core elements’ required for a Mantle experience.
This tool has been developed from planning guides from www.mantleoftheexpert.com and includes links to handouts from that site.
The tool is presented using a ‘Prezi’. Use the arrow bottom right to move through the circles.
